This chapter is no longer last one from syscalls. Currently "Limits on
resources in Linux" is the last chapter.

9f269b41df Improved picture of stack layout
* Added dots around envp and argv since those are arrays of pointers.
  While argc and NULL are just 8B, argv and envp are of variable size,
  usually more than 8B. The dots visualize this.

* In the first image, moved rsp to point to argc. This is the initial
  stack and register layout at the beginning of _start. Only after libc
  popped the top of the stack into rsi, rsp will point to beginning of
  argv. (*)

(*)
I verified this by writing my own _start implementation:

Language improvement: Added articles like `the`, `a`, ...

Content: The `exec*` family is a `C` wrapper, the syscall is usually only `execve`.

a87d46fd66 Clarify: vDSO is linked automatically with glibc
Change is partly a verbatim copy of https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/ABI/stable/vdso

Quote: "Programs that dynamically link to glibc will use the vDSO automatically. Otherwise, you can use the reference parser in tools/testing/selftests/vDSO/parse_vdso.c."

The old version of the book was slightly imprecise. It was unclear to me whether this is an optional or a default behavior.

4e08a7e426 Initialization: make grep command more precise
Idea is clearly to grep for "kthreadd", even though grepping for "kthread"
will also work.
